    I took these pictures a couple of years ago with my digital Canon Rebel. I was about 150 feet away from these two so I did crop it in a little. After these they came really close and I got the heck out of there .

    That swan looks like she's (or he's?) after you Kevin! Seem's to be saying "stay the heck away from my nest". Not somebody's wrath I want to incur

    I love the shots of the herons (particularly the one in flight). They are such incredibly graceful birds!

    Keep close to Nature's heart...
    and break clear away, once in awhile,
    and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods.
